Monkeys.

who's to say that a map heavily influenced by halo... is halo (ok maybe it is, but just don't use ripped content and give it a whirl).

... lol

LOL, nice one altis. That is someone else who is "trying" to make a Unity Halo. Though he has Halo in the name soooooooooo.....

Keep in mind that the SMG's foregrip is supposed to be able to fold up beneath the weapon. For the knife, I suggest looking at the machete on Halo's difficulty selection emblem, the knife used in Reach's assassinations, or modern combat knives. As it is now, it looks more like a kitchen knife with a random nub.

Kitchen knife! XD. Anyways here is clonecam117's Assault Rifle. Very WIP!:

WHAT THE WHAT IS THAT THING.

this should totally be the them song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7R5A0pg4oN8

It's a WIP, that's what it is.

I like that you're taking a different approach to the usual MA5 aesthetic, but I'd suggest using one of these as a reference, emulating it as closely as possible, and then modifying that once you have the base design down.

Funny you should say that!
First column, third one down :3

Yeah, that's what I thought you were going for. Not a bad concept. If you can make yours look like that, it should be good.

Clone is going for a more "different looking" but recognizable thing for the weapons. I redesigned my smg too and clone is gonna work on it more.

Hi guys, we need both character modelers and animators for Installation 01.

You might want to look around multiple forums to find some quality work rather than just asking halomaps users.

Already did. Hes just asking here.

Ok I have big news. Really big.

Recently, I have found someone who has done impressive Unity shaders and HDR lighting in Unity. So asked him if wanted to join my team. He accepted. But then he told me what he actually has done. He has been researching all about game engine graphics, including UDK lighting and Cryengine graphics. He has taken this knowledge and implemented them into the Unity Engine's source code! Yes! We are now talking about a very improved render engine for Unity. Basically, Installation 01 is now going to give the Cryengine a run for its money!

like how wack is that

That's cool and all but I'd rather see you guys come out with some quality finished models first. Right now is this project just in the pre-production phase where you guys are learning the engine and how to work it?

We are in production. The weapons and main spartan are currently being made. We have multiplayer working over the internet which you can shoot and kill in.

please for the love of rendered beauty, give us sliders for shader effects like lumasharpen, curves, contrast, noise, sepia, etc. maybe FOV too if u can handle it.

NOOO don't do that OMG

EXPOSED EXPOSED EXPOSED!!!

I will believe it when i see it. l:3

says the group of people that want to import halo 1s assets to ce3. Also. No we are not. All rips are removed.
Your just jelly we are doing as good, if not better then your savior contingency :)

The whole idea that there should be some sort of competition between the two engines is very childish. The point is to have another halo made with great multiplayer and/or singleplayer if you are going that route. You now have lighting comparable to that of pretty much any game of today. Your game could still be just another lame shooter if achieving cryengine looks is your primary concern. If you are going to decide which is better, then please have more of a game to show off that pride with. I would also not recommend fighting with that fossy guy as he was one of the members stating that all should move to cryengine, but in a demanding tone leaving the fact behind that his IQ is below that of a hamster.

Yeah have you seen my vids? Graphics mean nothing to me. It's just how the game is presented. Unity graphics are eh. So we increased them. That's a good thing.

@General 101: The main focus of the game is gameplay and mechanics. Right now I01 is going to have a halo 3 feel gameplay wise (we'll make our own changes later on in maybe late alpha or early beta). We don't want the game to suffer from the "grey level syndrome" so we have to focus a bit on the art side which does include the lighting and shader techniques. If Rapture from Bioshock didn't have all the color and mood painted by the lighting, the world of Rapture wouldn't look nearly as good. Point is we want the game to be great to play and not be hard on the eyes of those who really care about the extra graphical things.

@fossy It's a placeholder and will be replaced with custom assets. If you feel the need to tell Microsoft about how a small fan game is temporarily using their assets, tell them about how you also wanted to port Halo CE to cryengine. I'm sure they'll listen to you ever so closely and do as you command.sarcasm

Idc what anyone says but contingency is basically nothing but 2 phantoms in a carboard cutout of a city yet everyone thinks its there god. Its annoying.

So using your logic, Installation 01 is just a small plane with a bunch of jumping capsules.

atleast capsules that have gameplay are more fun then looking at phantoms do crap.
and using my brilliant logic bigass is a large terrain full of people that want to rip from it for there next johnlex mod.

He is kinda right though. Project Contingency is severely overhyped when barely any content has been shown and the general audience treats the devs like gods for bringing Halo to PC (as if that hasn't been happening for the past 10 years.) Also I cringe when people spit out biased and uniformed statements like 'omg so much better than halo 4 343 sux' just because it's a 3rd party game.

Whenever I think about this stuff it makes me hate the halo community. I mean I love these games but jesus the fanbase is so obnoxious.
